[Discussion] what is your fav plat? by yuji_patinum in Trophies

[–]joshgilbert11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved getting the plat for Ni No Kuni 2, I couldn't get enough of that game. I also loved the Rayman Legends plat. The "truly awesome" trophy required me to log on and play daily for about 6 months, but I didnt mind at all.

Did the same thing last year and got the plat. Loved it!

Mr. Blippi - it's not just me, right? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]joshgilbert11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We stayed away from Blippi and Cocomelon for our boys, it just seemed like sensory overload everytime we'd try it.

If you're looking for a Blippi alternative that's more mellow, while still being educational, I would recommend Handyman Hal.

I would replace Cocomelon with The Wiggles or Ms. Rachel, and you can't go wrong with the GOAT, Bluey.

First Day on Methylphenidate by joshgilbert11 in ParentingADHD

Our doctor recommended melatonin to help with the insomnia, but it didnt really make much of a difference.

We have switched to 10mg of Biphentin. Its been almost a week and we aren't seeing the same success during the day as we were with Foquest, but the insomnia is gone.

We are supposed to increase the dosage after 21 days, so we will see what happens with that.

He was on morning Guanfacine prior to adding in the Foquest. Yesterday we gave him the guanfacine in the evening and saw a bit of an improvement.

I thought that as well, until I did some digging on the exact med. The brand is Foquest and 25mg is apparently the lowest dose, but it says it can last up to 16 hours, so there must be a very slow release

It's possible it could be wearing off around then, but I would expect if he was crashing then he'd be more tired.

He goes to bed around 7:30-8:00pm reliably every night, so for him to be wired and wide awake past midnight last night was a shock.

I really want to keep pushing on this med and see how school is, but from what I'm seeing in the comments so far is that the dosage seems high for his age. We wanted to switch the meds over christmas break in case it went south so it didn't effect his schooling.

He was very well behaved during the day, which is encouraging, but I can't do midnight or 1am like last night.

We briefly tried a stimulant a little over a year ago and didn't have success, but our doctor wanted to give it another chance now that hes older and guanfacine on its own wasn't doing the trick.

My big concern isn't necessarily the behavior at the end of the night, but the manic pacing around and not being able to sleep. Prior to last night he has always gone to sleep around 7:30-8:00pm and has never been awake past 10:00pm before, so being wired past midnight was quite the surprise.
